It is these principles that are the foundation of Essential Vision’s first project 3Q – Questions that Count.

3Q – Questions That Count is Essential Vision’s flagship show.

It’s a panel based talk-show that aims to foster intelligent, but not too earnest, discussion from people who know their stuff. Think TED meets the Drum – or maybe even the Footy Show without the boof-heads.

Every week we will ask three questions of three guests and then open up the discussion to the panel. Simple.

But the aim is to have a new type of discussion. Instead of picking fights between people with different views, we want to understand issues, draw out our guests to find out what they think – not convince them they are wrong until the whole thing degenerates into a shouting match.

So, from union leaders to people heading NGOs, Super Funds and beyond – we will bring people together to discuss the key issues facing their organisations and Australia. You can check out the 3Q supporters here.

But it’s not just about them – we want you to share the Vision as well and contribute to the discussion – check out the questions we are asking this week and help us continue the conversation. We want to know what you think too.

And for all the political junkies out there, don’t forget, you can catch the program 8am, Sunday on Sky APAC.
